Internally getError and hasError call the AbstractControl#get method which takes `path: Array<string | number> | string` as input, since there are different ways to traverse the AbstractControl tree.
This change matches the method signitures of all methods that use this.

This has been deprecated to keep selector consistent with other core Angular selectors. As element selectors are in kebab-case.
Now deprecated:
```
<ngForm #myForm="ngForm">
```
After:
```
<ng-form #myForm="ngForm">
```
You can also choose to supress this warnings by providing a config for `FormsModule` during import:
```ts
imports: [
FormsModule.withConfig({warnOnDeprecatedNgFormSelector: 'never'});
]

Within an @NgModule it's common to include in the imports a call to
a ModuleWithProviders function, for example RouterModule.forRoot().
The old ngc compiler was able to handle this pattern because it had
global knowledge of metadata of not only the input compilation unit
but also all dependencies.
The ngtsc compiler for Ivy doesn't have this knowledge, so the
pattern of ModuleWithProviders functions is more difficult. ngtsc
must be able to determine which module is imported via the function
in order to expand the selector scope and properly tree-shake
directives and pipes.
This commit implements a solution to this problem, by adding a type
parameter to ModuleWithProviders through which the actual module
type can be passed between compilation units.
The provider side isn't a problem because the imports are always
copied directly to the ngInjectorDef.

Support for using the `ngModel` input property and `ngModelChange`
event with reactive form directives has been deprecated in
Angular v6 and will be removed in Angular v7.
Now deprecated:
```html
<input [formControl]="control" [(ngModel)]="value">
```
```ts
this.value = 'some value';
```
This has been deprecated for a few reasons. First, developers have
found this pattern confusing. It seems like the actual `ngModel`
directive is being used, but in fact it's an input/output property
named `ngModel` on the reactive form directive that simply approximates
(some of) its behavior. Specifically, it allows getting/setting the
value and intercepting value events. However, some of `ngModel`'s other
features - like delaying updates with`ngModelOptions` or exporting the
directive - simply don't work, which has understandably caused some
confusion.
In addition, this pattern mixes template-driven and reactive forms
strategies, which we generally don't recommend because it doesn't take
advantage of the full benefits of either strategy. Setting the value in
the template violates the template-agnostic principles behind reactive
forms, whereas adding a FormControl/FormGroup layer in the class removes
the convenience of defining forms in the template.
To update your code before v7, you'll want to decide whether to stick
with reactive form directives (and get/set values using reactive forms
patterns) or switch over to template-driven directives.
After (choice 1 - use reactive forms):
```html
<input [formControl]="control">
```
```ts
this.control.setValue('some value');
```
After (choice 2 - use template-driven forms):
```html
<input [(ngModel)]="value">
```
```ts
this.value = 'some value';
```
You can also choose to silence this warning by providing a config for
`ReactiveFormsModule` at import time:
```ts
imports: [
ReactiveFormsModule.withConfig({warnOnNgModelWithFormControl: 'never'});
]
```
Alternatively, you can choose to surface a separate warning for each
instance of this pattern with a config value of `"always"`. This may
help to track down where in the code the pattern is being used as the
code is being updated.
Note: `warnOnNgModelWithFormControl` is set up as deprecated so that it
can be removed in v7 when it is no longer needed. This will not display
properly in API docs yet because dgeni doesn't yet support deprecating
properties in object literals, but we have an open issue to resolve the
discrepancy here: https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/22640.

BREAKING CHANGE:
- `AbstractControl#statusChanges` now emits an event of `'PENDING'` when you call `AbstractControl#markAsPending`
- Previously it did not emit an event when you called `markAsPending`
- To migrate you would need to ensure that if you are filtering or checking events from `statusChanges` that you account for the new event when calling `markAsPending`

This commit introduces a new Input property called
`ngFormOptions` to the `NgForm` directive. You can use it
to set default `updateOn` values for all the form's child
controls. This default will be used unless the child has
already explicitly set its own `updateOn` value in
`ngModelOptions`.
Potential values: `change` | `blur` | `submit`
```html
<form [ngFormOptions]="{updateOn: blur}">
<input name="one" ngModel> <!-- will update on blur-->
</form>
```
For more context, see [#18577](https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/18577).
This commit introduces a new option to template-driven forms that
improves performance by delaying form control updates until the
"blur" or "submit" event. To use it, set the `updateOn` property
in `ngModelOptions`.
```html
<input ngModel [ngModelOptions]="{updateOn: blur}">
```
Like in AngularJS, setting `updateOn` to `blur` or `submit` will
delay the update of the value as well as the validation status.
Updating value and validity together keeps the system easy to reason
about, as the two will always be in sync. It's also worth noting
that the value/validation pipeline does still run when the form is
initialized (in order to support initial values).
Upcoming PRs will address:
* Support for setting group-level `updateOn` in template-driven forms
* Option for skipping initial validation run or more global error
display configuration
* Better support of reactive validation strategies
See more context in #18408, #18514, and the [design doc](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dlJjRXYeuHRygryK0XoFrZNqW86jH4wobftCFyYa1PA/edit#heading=h.r6gn0i8f19wz).
This commit adds support for setting default `updateOn` values
in `FormGroups` and `FormArrays`. If you set `updateOn` to
’blur’` at the group level, all child controls will default to `’blur’`,
unless the child has explicitly specified a different `updateOn` value.
```
const c = new FormGroup({
one: new FormControl()
}, {updateOn: blur});
```
It's worth noting that parent groups will always update their value and
validity immediately upon value/validity updates from children. In other
words, if a group is set to update on blur and its children are individually
set to update on change, the group will still update on change with its
children; its default value will simply not be used.
FormControls, FormGroups, and FormArrays now optionally accept an options
object as their second argument. Validators and async validators can be
passed in as part of this options object (though they can still be passed
in as the second and third arg as before).
```ts
const c = new FormControl(, {
validators: [Validators.required],
asyncValidators: [myAsyncValidator]
});
```
This commit also adds support for passing arrays of validators and async
validators to FormGroups and FormArrays, which formerly only accepted
individual functions.
```ts
const g = new FormGroup({
one: new FormControl()
}, [myPasswordValidator, myOtherValidator]);
```
This change paves the way for adding more options to AbstractControls,
such as more fine-grained control of validation timing.
Destructuring of the form:
function foo({a, b}: {a?, b?} = {})
breaks strictNullChecks, due to the TypeScript bug https://github.com/microsoft/typescript/issues/10078.
This change eliminates usage of destructuring in function argument lists in cases where it would leak
into the public API .d.ts.
With 4.2, we introduced the min and max validator directives. This was actually a breaking change because their selectors could include custom value accessors using the min/max properties for their own purposes.
For now, we are rolling back the change by removing the exports. At the least, we should wait to add them until a major version. In the meantime, we will have further discussion about what the best solution is going forward for all validator directives.
Closes#17491.

This commit fixes a regression where `ngModel` no longer syncs
letter by letter on Android devices, and instead syncs at the
end of every word. This broke when we introduced buffering of
IME events so IMEs like Pinyin keyboards or Katakana keyboards
wouldn't display composition strings. Unfortunately, iOS devices
and Android devices have opposite event behavior. Whereas iOS
devices fire composition events for IME keyboards only, Android
fires composition events for Latin-language keyboards. For
this reason, languages like English don't work as expected on
Android if we always buffer. So to support both platforms,
composition string buffering will only be turned on by default
for non-Android devices.
However, we have also added a `COMPOSITION_BUFFER_MODE` token
to make this configurable by the application. In some cases, apps
might might still want to receive intermediate values. For example,
some inputs begin searching based on Latin letters before a
character selection is made.
As a provider, this is fairly flexible. If you want to turn
composition buffering off, simply provide the token at the top
level:
```ts
providers: [
{provide: COMPOSITION_BUFFER_MODE, useValue: false}
]
```
Or, if you want to change the mode based on locale or platform,
you can use a factory:
```ts
import {shouldUseBuffering} from 'my/lib';
....
providers: [
{provide: COMPOSITION_BUFFER_MODE, useFactory: shouldUseBuffering}
]
```
Closes#15079.
